Anyone stepping into the great outdoors needs to be prepared for anything to happen. Fortunately, there is plenty of amazing and reliable gear out there, but if you're serious about your camping experience, you don't just want good, you want the best. To be frank, there is no brand more reliable than Yeti.
Founded in 2006, Yeti was born with a simple idea: perfect the outdoor excursion with reliable goods you can use everyday — outdoorsman gear meant strictly for the devoted outdoorsman, one that can take the abuse that comes when handling nature. As of 2021, Yeti has continued to thrive and be the go-to, one-stop-shop for the nature-loving camper. Here are five Yetiessentials every camper needs before they pitch a tent.
YETI Crossroads Packing Cubes

Available in three different sizes, The Medium Cube is useful when organizing a change of clothes after hitting the river. And theLarge Cube is a reliable go-to when grabbing a few extra pairs of pants, a tarp, or your favorite rain jacket. This is the perfect tool for any kind of traveling and soon enough you'll wonder how you ever traveled without it.

You'll probably be eating a lot when you're camping, especially if you have a large family, so you'll definitely need a cooler to store your goods in. Yeti sells soft and hard coolers for every kind of purpose. Are you planning a massive family getaway?

The Tundra® Hard Cooler Family is meant to resolve all of those frustrating issues and give you and your family peace of mind so you can get back to enjoying your trip. The ice will stay cold and the food won't be crammed or squished thanks to the Cooler's wide interior. It even comes with a complimentary dry goods basket.

Unlike other mugs, this mug features a double-wall vacuum-insulated body that protects your hands from both hot and cold contents while keeping your coffee, chili, oatmeal, ice cream, or whatever else, well-insulated.
